Bull Butting
The popular spectator sport of bull butting , held in an unassuming dirt area on the southern outskirts of town (before Al-Rughailat Bridge) has been held in the area for centuries. Bulls are brought here from all over the UAE to lock horns and test their strength against each other. The Emirati families (this is one sport that sees just as many female spectators as male) park their cars in a circle and stand and sit in front of them, forming something of an arena. The five or six Emirati men who judge the event sit cross-legged on the ground quite close to the action. While a wandering bull sees spectators racing for their cars, the judges rarely flinch.
